Compressibility factor is used for ideal gases. It is used to modify the ideal gas law to account for real gases' behaviour. It is a measure used to know the deviation, i.e., how the properties of a real gas deviate from expected values of an ideal gas.

It can be written as the ratio of (the volume of real gas) and (the predicted volume of an ideal gas at the same temperature and pressure).
